Unfortunately you checked out from SVN while I was still
fixing an upgrade path for a recent minor db change.
At this time, here's what you need to do:
1. Update from SVN, to get 7181 or later snapshot.
2. Delete your half-upgraded databases,
if you have any.
3. Delete all files in your db environment dir.
On Linux it would be ~/.gramps/bsddbenv
I am not sure what it maps to on windows,
but it is in you src/const.py file as the
"bsddbenv_dir" variable.
Then it should work,
Alex
P.S. I am forwarding this to gramps-windows in hopes
that somebody will help you with locating the "bsddbenv_dir"
in case you have trouble. You really need to clean that
directory before gramps is able to proceed.

On my computer, it is in: "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\gramps\bsddbenv".
